Chinnappa Reddy X Tax collection by Department of Commercial Taxes between 1985-2012 XI Response of various Department regarding efficiency of SC ST staff 2 Executive Summary This report has been prepared by the Department of SC & ST Welfare, Govt. of Bihar, pursuant to letter no. 125 dt. 22/06/12 of the General Administration Department, Government of Bihar and with reference to the Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.5649 of 2008 in the High Court of judicature at Patna and the Letters Patent Appeal No.1225 of 2011 in Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No. 5649 of 2008 (with Interlocutory Application No. 5968 of 2011 and Interlocutory Application No. 5969 of 2011 in Letters Patent Appeal No.1225 of 2011), with the intent to determine the relative level of backwardness of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes in Bihar, inadequacy of their representation in various government services, including Engineering Service(s), and the impact if any, of SC/ST quotas in promotions on the overall administrative efficiency of government machinery. Reservations have been envisaged in the Constitution of India as an affirmative action/intervention to deal with historical societal marginalization of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes in India. Initially, the Supreme Court in its judgment dated 16.11.1992 in the case of Indra Sawhney had held reservation in promotion as unconstitutional but allowed its continuation for five years from the date of judgment as a special case. The 77th amendment to the Constitution was made in 1995 before expiry of five year, which enabled the Government to continue reservation for SCs and STs in promotion. Another important amendment to the constitution is the 85th amendment, which provides for reservation to the SCs and the STs in promotion with consequential seniority and the instructions issued by the Government for such reservation in Central Government services are continuing till date. Many state governments referred these amendments for designing schemes for reservation in case of promotion for SC/ST along with consequential seniority. In many cases, however, policies related to reservation in promotions were challenged through several writ 3 petitions as being unconstitutional. All these cases were clubbed together and heard by the Supreme Court in M. NagarajVs UOI &Ors. The Supreme Court, while ruling that the 77th& 85th Constitutional amendments were constitutionally valid, further ruled that these are enabling provisions and states will have to make out a case for providing reservations in promotion based on quantifiable data and satisfy the court that such reservation became necessary on account of inadequacy of representation of SCs/STs in a particular class or classes of posts without affecting the general efficiency of service as mandated under article 335 of the Constitution. The Supreme Court thus ruled that if a State Government (or for that matter Central Government) wants to provide reservation to SCs and STs in promotion, along with consequential seniority, a case will have to be made out satisfying the three conditions: collecting of quantifiable data showing backwardness of the class and inadequacy of representation of that class in public employment; ensuring compliance with Article 335 which says that while making reservation, due consideration is to be given to maintenance of efficiency of administration; and ensuring that the reservation provision does not cross the ceiling of 50% and does not obliterate the creamy layer and that the reservation does not extend indefinitely. In keeping with the directive of Hon’ble High Court of Patna and the decisions of Supreme Court of India, the Government of Bihar has sought to determine the relative level of backwardness of the SCs and STs in Bihar, inadequacy of their representation in various government services, including Engineering Service(s), and the impact if any, of SC/ST quotas in promotions on the overall administrative efficiency of government machinery. Among other sources, this report is partly based on the analysis of data made available by various departments of government of Bihar. Responses of various departments of Government of Bihar to purposive questionnaires have also been taken into account, particularly with regard to representation of SC/ST staff and the impacts of reservation on overall 4 administrative efficiency. In addition, relevant data drawn from various Census of India publications (2001), National Sample Surveys and various other prominent publications have also been used in this report. Based on the analysis of available data and the responses of the concerned departments, this report shows how persistent social backwardness and relatively disadvantaged economic status added with limited educational achievements have hindered the pace of SC/ST communities’ development in comparison to other social groups in Bihar. This could be seen in available data, which exposes that even after six decades of independence these communities are compelled to live and work in extremely difficult conditions. Over 90 percent of the total SC and ST population live in villages. Two thirds of SCs and STs in Bihar are poor and 71 percent of them are non-literate. Only 4 percent SC and ST in the state could manage to study up to graduation and above level. 83% of the sanitation workers hail from Dom, Mehtar and Bhangi communities. This socio-economic status and limited educational qualification is reflected in SC and ST communities’ space in government jobs. There is a visible concentration of SCs and STs in fourth grade jobs and a striking under-representation at senior positions in the Government of Bihar. Representation of SC and ST communities is very negligible in senior positions and in some departments there is no SC and/or ST personnel at senior positions at all. These facts clearly indicate that reservation in promotions is needed for ensuring their representation in government services. The report underscores the visible, though inadequate, improvement in the quality of life of SCs and STs due to policies of affirmative action. In fact, representation of staff under reserved SC/ST quotas is less than 5% across most services having sufficient promotional positions.

  • The Effectiveness of Jobs Reservation: Caste, Religion and Economic Status in India
    The Effectiveness of Jobs Reservation: Caste, Religion and Economic Status in India Vani K. Borooah, Amaresh Dubey and Sriya Iyer ABSTRACT This article investigates the effect of jobs reservation on improving the eco- nomic opportunities of persons belonging to India’s Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST). Using employment data from the 55th NSS round, the authors estimate the probabilities of different social groups in India being in one of three categories of economic status: own account workers; regu- lar salaried or wage workers; casual wage labourers. These probabilities are then used to decompose the difference between a group X and forward caste Hindus in the proportions of their members in regular salaried or wage em- ployment. This decomposition allows us to distinguish between two forms of difference between group X and forward caste Hindus: ‘attribute’ differences and ‘coefficient’ differences. The authors measure the effects of positive dis- crimination in raising the proportions of ST/SC persons in regular salaried employment, and the discriminatory bias against Muslims who do not benefit from such policies. They conclude that the boost provided by jobs reservation policies was around 5 percentage points. They also conclude that an alterna- tive and more effective way of raising the proportion of men from the SC/ST groups in regular salaried or wage employment would be to improve their employment-related attributes. INTRODUCTION In response to the burden of social stigma and economic backwardness borne by persons belonging to some of India’s castes, the Constitution of India allows for special provisions for members of these castes.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 TH£ S£ £ f Zosz ABSTRACT This thesis is an ethnographic exploration of the inter-locking relationships between politics, popular democracy, religion and caste/community formation in a North Indian town. This study is conducted through an exploration of the political rhetoric and political participation of a community of Yadavs in Mathura town, western Uttar Pradesh. The Yadavs were traditionally a low- to middle- ranking cluster of pastoral-peasant castes that have become a significant political force in Uttar Pradesh (and other northern states like Bihar) in the last thirty years. The analysis of Yadav political culture involves the historical exploration of varying local conceptions of caste, race, primordialism, socio-religious segmentation, factionalism, history/myth, politics and democracy. Throughout the thesis runs a concern with the elaboration of a theoretical framework which makes sense of the transformation of the caste system, and its interrelations with modem politics and Hinduism.
